very simple Green Flash powder. i call it metallic green becuase it is Zinc and Magnesium based and it burns green. Not a very expensive flash to make either. but it is very dangerous to make flash without any knowledge in pyrotechnics. only make this if you are experienced enough.

  • im not gettin the joke , everyone is using magnesium powder - so i bought too - but will it work with magnesiumcarbonate ???

  • @HackNowLiveLater I will help you out and give you your answer. no Magnesium Carbonate is not reactive with the following chemicals in this video. I would not bother buying chemicals if you are not sure what they do.

  • can u use magnesium oxide ???

  • @MrMycraphole123 no, because it is already oxidized, and thats what the sulfur does to cause the reaction.

  • wheres the oxidiser?

  • @pyro12311 Read the comments, Sulfur plays part as the oxidizer in this reaction.

  • The irony of the diaper mixing newspaper having the word "bomb" in a headline about the shoe-bomber attempting to blow up a passenger jet on Christmas day doesn't escape me.

  • would the powder set off if droped on the ground if it had enough friction

  • @epiclolzzor Says who?

  • magnesium sounds like magnet can i grind up a refrigerator magnet and sprinkle it on a aluminum baseball bat to make flash powder or super nano thermite? /troll

  • anyone notice the bomb report in the paper he uses? irony?

  • whats the purpose of it being green if its used in mostly say firecracker and used for shells and etc i don't see the purpose of it being green at all plz respond.

  • Needs a chlorine donor for more color. Use parlon and Barium chlorate maybe?
